The term âraceâ or âgenusâ is used (1) if generation of things which have the
same form is continuous, e.g. âwhile the race of men lastsâ means âwhile the
generation of them goes on continuouslyâ.-(2) It is used with reference to that
which first brought things into existence; for it is thus that some are called
Hellenes by race and others Ionians, because the former proceed from Hellen
and the latter from Ion as their first begetter. And the word is used in
reference to the begetter more than to the matter, though people also get a
race-name from the female, e.g. âthe descendants of Pyrrhaâ.-(3) There is
genus in the sense in which âplaneâ is the genus of plane figures and solidâ of
solids; for each of the figures is in the one case a plane of such and such a
kind, and in the other a solid of such and such a kind; and this is what
underlies the differentiae. Again (4) in definitions the first constituent
element, which is included in the âwhatâ, is the genus, whose differentiae the
qualities are said to be âGenusâ then is used in all these ways, (1) in reference
to continuous generation of the same kind, (2) in reference to the first mover
which is of the same kind as the things it moves, (3) as matter; for that to
which the differentia or quality belongs is the substratum, which we call
matter.
Those things are said to be âother in genusâ whose proximate substratum is
different, and which are not analysed the one into the other nor both into the
same thing (e.g. form and matter are different in genus); and things which
belong to different categories of being (for some of the things that are said to
âbeâ signify essence, others a quality, others the other categories we have
before distinguished); these also are not analysed either into one another or
into some one thing.

âThe falseâ means (1) that which is false as a thing, and that (a) because it is
not put together or cannot be put together, e.g. âthat the diagonal of a square is
commensurate with the sideâ or âthat you are sittingâ; for one of these is false
always, and the other sometimes; it is in these two senses that they are non-
existent. (b) There are things which exist, but whose nature it is to appear
either not to be such as they are or to be things that do not exist, e.g. a sketch
or a dream; for these are something, but are not the things the appearance of
which they produce in us. We call things false in this way, then,-either
